" When I visited Maman, I was greeted by the most welcoming staff. The ambiance overall was charming, but I found the food to be quite average compared to what I had anticipated. I tried the classic French toast; though it was beautifully presented, I found it a bit dry and lacking in flavor. The service was prompt, but I felt the server could have been more attentive. I hope that the next time I visit, I can try something more exciting from their menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a beautiful place! This café has a lovely ambiance! I went there for brunch with friends and had the best experience. Their coffee is exquisite, I ordered the lavender latte and was impressed by both the flavor and presentation. I also tried their beignets, which were delightful and fluffy. The portion sizes were adequate for the price, and the service was friendly. Definitely a place I would recommend for a chill brunch. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Maman looking for a spot to work, and while I loved the atmosphere, I was disappointed with my food choice. The cookies were beautiful to look at but lacked flavor. The mocha was good, but I expected more from their desserts after reading so much positive feedback. I found the service to be somewhat indifferent. Perhaps another item on the menu would resonate better with my taste, but it left me wanting for now. " (*Curated Review*)

" Maman always delivers a wonderful experience! I came here for brunch with friends and was impressed by the extensive menu filled with authentic French dishes. The ratatouille I had was bursting with flavor. I also loved the atmosphere; it had a cozy yet chic vibe that made it a picture-perfect spot. The waitstaff was friendly and attentive. My only issue was that it was a bit busy, and we had to wait for a table, but the food was worth it. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a special meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" Stunning ambiance, excellent pastries, and coffee—the trifecta! I came here on a rainy day to escape and ended up spending close to two hours enjoying their avocado toast and a multi-layered chocolate cake. The portions were generous for the prices. The service was quick, although not overly engaging. It's common for busy spots. I thoroughly enjoyed my time and will certainly return. It’s a charming escape from the frenzy of the city.

" I loved my experience at Maman! I visited for brunch and was greeted by warm smiles and a cozy atmosphere. I tried their famous chocolate croissant and was in heaven. It was buttery and just the right amount of sweetness. The service was attentive, even during the lunch rush. Prices are on the higher side, but the quality and presentation make it worthwhile. I'll be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" A stylish and beautiful café with great pastries! I had a delightful cherry tart, and their cappuccino was on point. I really enjoyed the free Wi-Fi as it allowed me to get some work done. I did find the staff a bit distant, but they did their job efficiently. Despite its busy nature, the ambiance stayed relaxed, and I'd recommend Maman for both coffee lovers and pastry enthusiasts.
